    I wonder if anyone didnt used any silvers by mistake when they 'first' started to game. Shouldnt be, if they didnt read any guides before playing at all O.o Well he should ofc ask or search when to cc because you cant be sure about it just yourself because there is a selection, cc at 30 or 50, you just shouldnt roll the dices there. But in the beginning game offers to many silvers that you dont want to even bother yourself searching about if they are important or not because you think they come often to your team, until you meet with ccing.

    As a Fire Emblem vet, I assumed you miss out on stats if you "promote" (CC) early.

    As an hardcore (around 2000+ hours gameplay) disgaea series fan i was able to assume that too. There u can reincarnate characters but u wont get the most out of it if u dont do it at level 9999 (yes 4 digits). Well in that game though its a lot more forgiving done once since u can reincarnate for about 32 times if i remember right. (yes 32*9999 levels).
    Im luckly a strategie type of guy. When starting to play a game i didnt plan to play (like aigis which i started playing like 4 am in the morning) i usualy look up a wiki and guides (i was lurking in this forum for more then a month befor signing in) within at latest one day after starting to play. As i learned from past mistakes in games that u can never be sure enough.
    But that shouldnt be an expectiation to aigis newbie players. A lot like to learn through trial and error. A game should enable errors but make sure to at least hint at errors that CANT be made up for. ccing at 30 is an error that cant be undone or played around and later getting corrected. Its impossible to correct. Such Errors are more toxic to a game then encouraging a challanging game curve. Who doesnt read a warning can at least say it was his own fault, thats stupid but doesnt frustrate u as something u couldnt know if not searching for it external at unofficial sources. And that is whats bugging me. You need unofficial sources. The game even if not offering a warning at least needs to have an own source where it explains something as game cutting as that, its the developers responsibility not the responsibility of the community to make the error and then pass it down to the newbs who use google and find them in some forum.
    Im only saying this as, like lolix, this threat realy hurts my soul^^"

    Yeah, it hurts to see people end up like this. I'd love to believe people would assume that since your level resets to 1 after CC, any levels you're short of 50 pre-CC would be lost, but some people aren't experienced gamers who make that assumption/connection. "It sounds like a quick jump in power, OK!"

    Ultimately, the biggest issue is that if you make such a mistake with premium units (read: anything above Silver) then it is essentially impossible to correct without re-rolling the unit, feeding the "mistake copy" to the new, properly raised copy, which isn't really correcting it in the first place.

    I dunno, one problem I have with MWA is there's a few things that the game kinda implies you should do, but which, unintuitively, you really shouldn't except in certain circumstnaces. One is CC-ing at level 30, the other one is using silver units for combination. I always thought the latter was rather galling since the game also doesn't tell you that you need silvers for CC-ing...

    Where at all does the game kinda imply you should be CCing at 30? Also, as pointed by many with any game experience, it's not at all unintuitive. As for the second part, using silvers in combination is perfectly fine to get CR/SU, you just don't have the loads of silvers to spare early on if you also want to be CCing more valuable units, which is the best long term play. If you're suggesting that the game should be actively telling you the best way to play (especially so in a F2P game) ... then you have much to learn.

    The part where it tells you, "Hey, you can CC now!" at level 30, and tells you nothing else.

    If you're suggesting that the game should be actively telling you the best way to play (especially so in a F2P game) ... then you have much to learn.
    There's a difference between telling the player the best way to play, and telling the player what happens when they do X. MWA generally isn't very transparent with its mechanics...

    There's also a difference between telling you something is possible and telling you should/should not do so. Think you need to look up what implying means because it certainly doesn't imply that at all.

    MWA does the former and does not tell you you shouldn't. It's been a while since I've been at that point so I admit I don't clearly recall what it does say, but it gives no indication that you might not want to do so.

    As evidenced by the repeated accounts of people CC-ing at level 30, I think that should be an obvious indicator that things could stand to be a little more clear. Is it too much to ask for the proverbial instruction manual to be a little more... informative?
